FilmCAN has evolved into an exciting film competition that invites budding young filmmakers from local middle and high schools to make a short film on a subject of their choice. The winner of the middle school category will win a Sony HDRCX100 HD Camcorder courtesy of Sony Style. For competitors in the high school category a new iMac complete with Final Cut Express from Soho Computers is on the line. The winning film in each category will screen at Empire Theatres Capitol 6 alongside a Victoria Film Festival feature film!

Our aim is to educate and expose students to filmmaking and encourage motivated students to create a great film. To assist in this endeavor, students will have access to a professional filmmaker as a resource to offer suggestions, feedback and even facilitate in finding props or locations.
